Investor Update summary
3 Feb, 2026Strategic vision and growth targets

2027 targets reaffirmed: revenue of €3–3.2 billion, EBITDA margin of at least 38%, and adjusted net income expected to reach €770–820M, with a CAGR of 11.8% (2024–2027).
Growth strategy leverages a diversified business model across specialty primary care (SPC) and rare diseases (RRD), with geographic and portfolio diversification mitigating risks.
